The main square of Piacenza with a beautiful Gothic palace. It takes its name from two equestrian statues of two members of the Farnese family, which for a long time dominated the city. The square is also overlooked by much less beautiful buildings, which quite seriously disrupt the view. However, a must-see for anyone visiting Piacenza.

The Church of San Pietro (Shrine of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart), in the nearby village of Gera, dating back to the 11th century, bears witness to the various eras the village has gone through and still retains a sacred and fascinating atmosphere today. At first glance, its colorful façade is striking, dominated by mosaics on a golden background with the images of saints and classic religious scenes, the creation of which is due to the work of Don Pietro Mizzi after the Second World War. Although the structure of the Church of San Pietro is rather classic, of Romanesque layout, it is the entire façade that makes it unique in its kind in Italy. Also on the outside, the spire bell tower makes a beautiful display, while inside you can admire frescoes from different periods, from the oldest of the Lombard school to the most recent of the 17th century.
